Are Body Cleansing Diets Worth Starving For?

If celebrities like Beyonce swear by detox diets, should you? Experts share how these diets really affect your body

The Fruit Flush Diet This three-day program promises to relieve your body of harmful toxins by using "nature's perfect cleansing food," according to Jay Robb, author of the "Fruit Flush 3 Day Detox." He claims on his website that this simple cleanse will help you lose nine pounds in only three days. How does it work? The book outlines that you are to "consume fresh fruit only from morning until evening and then for dinner consume a meal that focuses on a large vegetable salad, starchy vegetables and a protein shake."

Do something to help your body deal with the over processed foods and pollution is good. Increasing water and eating healthier food is good. Fasting for a short time is good too. However, it tends to be that right after the weight returns because we revert back to our bad diet.
So slower, more permanent changes are better in the long run. More movement and healthy food. Perhaps a day a week with only raw fruits/veggies.
